On a cold and sunny Saturday morning a fabulous team of GGers came together to support nearly 1300 parkrunners and parkwalkers at Southampton parkrun. That’s a record attendance since the return of parkrun post pandemic! We had people helping with set up, marshalling, pacing, park walking, tail walking and close down. There was an added water feature on route due to all the rain so wet toes for runners and walkers! A flat tyre on the cart made close down tricky, but many hands made light work. Well done everyone and thank you to our GG neighbours from Portsmouth for joining us for our first task of the year.
